Strudels With Tomato Gravy
1 package yeast
1 1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup water
3 eggs (beaten)
5 1/4 cup flour
Tomato Gravy Below
Combine yeast, sugar, salt, and water. Add egg and flour. mix and knead well; let dough rest 1 hour or longer in covered bowl. Divide into 4 portions. Roll out into rounds about 1/8 inch thick. Place rounds on dish towel or lightly floured surface and spread with soft shortening or oil. Stretch as much as you can then roll in the form of a log; let these rest about 1/2 hour stretching occasionally (they will get to be quite long). Cut into 3 or 4 inch lengths.
Cook meat (chicken, pork, or beef) partly done in roaster; add as many potatoes as you need, small onions as you like. Add enough hot water to show up between the potatoes and meat. Let come to a boil; place the strudels on top and cover with a tight lid. Cook gently 25 to 3O minutes. DO NOT LIFT THE LID. Let set 10 min.
This is the way I do them:
Also good to cook in a frying pan; put 3 or 4 Tbsp. shortening in pan add 1 cup water; add strudels. Cover tightly and cook at 350 degrees until you hear them frying; turn down to 300 and cook another 15 min. let set uncovered for 10 min. DO NO LIFT THE LID. This takes about 2 hours & 40 min. from start to finish.
